Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

• linkme.fieldsOnly: enable/disable matching words as fields or sections of lines.
• linkme.rules: to [ { "pattern": "", "url": "" } ]
  Example: [ { "pattern": "S:(.*)", "https://google.com/search?q=\\1" }
  Result: "S:never+gonna+give+you+up" links to https://google.com/search?q=never+gonna+give+you+up
  

Tips

• Test your regular expressions online (google "regex tester" and use the javascript regex engine).
• DON'T set fieldsOnly to false unless you know what you're doing. Only for users with experience with regular expresssions.
• Make sure to escape special json characters.
  /file\.php/ in json is "file\\.php"
